The first of a series of maritime workshops led by shipwright Nate Slater will begin this fall! The planking class will be held on December 1st and 2nd from 2-5pm. This workshop will focus on wooden boat restoration. Students will remove a derelict plank from the Shenandoah and learn traditional repair techniques, including making a pattern, grading and cutting plank materials, installation, and corking and paying of seams.
